I was told by my doctor that a baby should eat 2 oz per every month old they are. They should have about 5-6 bottles a day (or as much as they can hold, never force your baby to eat) and somewhere in the neighborhood of 8-10 wet diapers a day. Mind you they won't be soaking wet diapers, but they should pee about that many times a day.

Give 4 oz. But honestly, give them what they will eat, whenever they want it. I think that at 12 weeks, my daughter was drinking 3 oz every 3-4 hours.

Every baby is different but my 2 1/2 month old is drinking 6oz every 3-4 hours. Your baby will let you know when she's hungry. Let her eat as much as she wants, she won't eat when she's full.

Every child if different. Somewhere between 2-4oz every 2-3hrs.
At that age my daughter drank 3oz every 2hrs almost like clockwork except during the night.
I hope this helps.

Every baby is different.....but I would say about 4 oz each feeding is about normal. If you feel your baby is eating too much or too little discuss it with your pediatrcian.....he will know what's best.

My son ate 40oz/day at 2 months, but that's unusual. My daughter probably drank more like 20, but I can't remember. Call your pediatrician.
